Songwriters will now be able to “check the books” with the click of a button, thanks to an app launched by Sony/ATV Music Publishing for its royalty portal SCORE.

Compatible with both Android and IOS, the app gives songwriters and their reps real-time access to their current royalty account as well as a complete list of past earnings, and can be searched by song title, income source time period and territory.

“At Sony/ATV we are committed to providing our songwriters and their teams with an unrivalled level of transparency and service, which includes giving them access to the most highly-detailed royalty information available,” said Sony/ATV Chairman and CEO Martin Bandier. “The launch of the SCORE app is an important next step in us delivering on that promise and now means our writers can obtain an unsurpassed insight into their historic and current period earnings with one simple click.”
